Hi, thanks for the warm welcome.
And yeah, I connected the pcie power cable into the 8800gts. I don't really have a computer to test with. The mobo and the CPU are brand new since, my last ones broke down last week, everything is still the same. If the pcie power cable is faulty, or if the cable wouldn't be plugged in at all, wouldn't the computer still turn on? Since that cable is just for VGA no? I just find it odd that it doesn't turn on at all when i plug in the 8800gts.
Well, here's the complete list of my specs:
PSU: Thermaltake 500Watts.
Motherboard: Gigabyte G41M-ES2L
CPU: Pentium E6300
GPU: 8800 GTS/ 8400 GS
RAM: Some corsair DDR2 2Gigs.
